 Yes, another quartz. (IMHO) this is one of Luminox's better designed watches. I have the analog only version with a black dial and this blue dial version adds a digital screen with an Alarm, day/date, 2nd time zone, and stop watch features. There is even a 24 hour inner dial. Perfect for me. This watch has been discontinued and is now getting hard to find. At 45mm the watch wears more like a 43mm on my wrist. It is very easy to read day or night.

Fit and finish on this model is excellent. Nice big screwed-in case back and an easy to turn rotating bezel. It is supposed to be a dive watch, but I wouldn't take it in the water. I've read where some owners have gone diving with this model and it leaks. It really is more of a backyard pool dive watch. Hardly one to go snorkeling with.

It comes on a really nice rubber strap that fits great. But, I couldn't resist putting a Lorica strap on it to match the blue dial. :D
